EDITORS COMMENTS
In this elegant snapshot from the roaring twenties, a young and fashionable lady dons a delightfully demure rose-pink rubber bathing cap adorned with white streamers and a turn-back front. The image, captured in 1923, exudes an air of refinement and sophistication, as the lady prepares for a day at the pool or the seaside. The bathing cap, sourced from the esteemed Marshall & Snelgrove department store on Oxford Street in London, is a testament to the era's fashionable trends. Bathing caps were an essential accessory for women during the 1920s, as they protected their hair from the damaging effects of chlorine and sun. The addition of streamers and a turn-back front added a playful touch to an otherwise practical item. The young woman in the photograph embodies the spirit of the 1920s, with her stylish attire and confident demeanor. The rose-pink color of the bathing cap complements her fair complexion and adds a touch of femininity to her look. The cap's simple yet elegant design is a reflection of the understated glamour that defined the era. As she gazes off into the distance, the young lady exudes an aura of tranquility and relaxation. The image captures a moment of respite from the hustle and bustle of the city, inviting us to imagine the joys of a leisurely day spent by the water. The photograph is a beautiful reminder of the enduring allure of the past and the timeless appeal of a day at the pool or the beach.
